Weird isnt it, how your taste buds change. We always used to drink full fat. As kids we would fight for the cream at the top. Years ago we switched to semi then to skimmed.
I repeat my offer. I will swap you one bog roll for a bottle of Cognac.
Although we live in a big town we have a fairly big garden that backs onto a country park so over the years we have been blessed with a variety of birds. These have dropped off a lot in the last few years.
I think nature and wildlife will actually benefit from this. Sadly, it will be short lived once it’s all over and the pollution levels ramp up again.
Many years ago now when I worked on a farm above Port Glasgow they used to trek up over the fields to dig up potatoes. We used to do regular patrols but could never catch them. What was more interesting was the time somebody stole all the fence posts alongside the main road and all the young beasts and yeld cattle got out and were eating the gardens in Kilmalcolm before we found out. Getting them back up the road was a nightmare. When ploughing the top fields we listened carefully for strange noises. I once got a sack full of brass taps and in another case a new but empty dustbin which somebody had dug a hole for and buried.
